4.  Vaults 
A vault is a location for storing backup archives. For ease of use and administration, a vault is 
associated with the archives' metadata. Referring to this metadata makes for fast and convenient 
operations with archives and backups stored in the vault. 
A vault can be organized on a local or networked drive, detachable media or a tape device attached 
to the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Storage Node. 
There are no settings for limiting a vault size or number of backups in a vault. You can limit the size of 
each archive using cleanup, but the total size of archives stored in the vault is limited by the storage 
size only. 
Why create vaults? 
We  recommend  that  you  create  a  vault  in  each  destination where you are going to store backup 
archives. This will ease your work as follows. 
Quick access to the vault 
You will not have to remember paths to the folders where the archives are stored. When creating a 
backup plan or a task that requires selection of an archive or an archive destination place, the list of 
vaults will be available for quick access without drilling down through the folders tree. 
Easy archive management 
A vault is available for access from the Navigation pane. Having selected the vault, you can browse 
the archives stored there and perform the following archive management operations: 
• 
get a list of backups included in each archive 
• 
recover data from a backup 
• 
examine backup content 
• 
validate all archives in the vault or individual archives or backups 
• 
mount a volume backup to copy files from the backup to a physical disk 
• 
safely delete archives and backups from the archives. 
Creating vaults is highly recommended but is not obligatory. You may choose not to use the shortcuts 
and always specify the full path to the archive vault. All of the above operations except for archive 
and backup deletion can be performed without creating vaults. 
The operation of creating a vault results in adding the vault name to the Vaults section of the 
Navigation pane. 
Centralized and personal vaults 
A centralized vault is a networked location allotted by the management server administrator to serve 
as storage for the backup archives. A centralized vault can be managed by a storage node (managed 
vault) or be unmanaged.
